Women’s Bible Study Survey
In an effort to keep up to date and best provide for the needs and spiritual growth of our women, it would help us if women would take a few minutes to prayerfully fill out the survey. While in no way required for the survey, those women that fill it out by the end of January and include their name will be entered into a drawing for a special prize. Thanks for your help!
